People Just Getting Started in Business
Get your first win fast — without painting yourself into a corner.
You're at square one (or maybe square 1.5)...
You know you want to sell something, but every "all-in-one" solution feels wrong:
You don't need to become Amazon. You just need to get your business online, make your first sales, and not box yourself in with bad early decisions.
How iTask helps you get that first win fast:
A single Mac mini on your desk can run your whole operation — products, orders, contacts, email, support, analytics. No giant server bill, no mystery cloud dependency.
You buy iTask once per user, and you're done until the next major version. All point updates (1.1, 1.2, 1.9…) are included. Your costs stay predictable.
Define products, prices, and inventory, then publish your store to cheap or even free static hosting. You're selling from a proper domain, with a fast, secure site, in hours — not after an endless setup wizard.
If your work is physical — packing orders, assembling products, moving inventory — plug in a $30 USB barcode scanner. Mark tasks done, move stock between locations, check items in and out. Just by scanning.
Your newsletter, customer announcements, and support@ email all live inside iTask. No Mailchimp. No Zendesk. No learning yet another SaaS UI or paying per subscriber.
What this actually means for you:
Your first online store can be live on your own domain without hiring a developer.
Your first email list and newsletter can be sent without signing up for Mailchimp, Aweber, or ConvertKit.
Your first support system is ready the moment your first order comes in.
You can grow into sophistication instead of over-buying complexity you don't understand yet.
Solo Entrepreneurs & "One-Person Companies"
Stop duct-taping your business together.
You're the person who does... everything.
You're already on some mix of Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Stripe, PayPal, Mailchimp, Notion, Google Sheets, and random Upwork contractors. You've proven people will buy. But the back office is chaos and everything depends on your brain.
You don't need yet another app. You need one place where everything connects.
How iTask helps you stop duct-taping your business together:
iTask ties together contacts, customers, orders, invoices, payments, tasks, projects, inventory, fulfillment, email campaigns, and support. When you open any record, you see the whole story: what they bought, what you shipped, what you promised, what emails they got.
You don't have to blow up your current stack on day one. Mirror your products into iTask while keeping Shopify live. Move support or email into iTask as you're ready. Use iTask as your internal "control room" first, then let it take over public-facing pieces.
When you bring someone in from Fiverr or Upwork, give them limited access to only the tasks, files, and info they need. Keep all communication and deliverables inside your iTask projects. No more hunting through email threads and DMs months later.
iTask understands you might be shipping from your living room, storage unit, and a small rented space all at once. Pick and pack with barcodes and quick scans, not spreadsheets and guesswork.
Because your products, customers, and email list live together, it's easy to find your best customers, see what's actually profitable (not just what "sells"), and spin up simple campaigns without juggling tools.
What this actually means for you:
Spend less time context-switching between tools and more time on work that moves the needle.
Delegate small pieces of your operation without handing someone the keys to everything.
Have a single source of truth instead of a pile of apps that sort-of talk to each other.
No more SaaS bill that grows faster than your revenue.
Small Businesses with a Local Team
Run like a system, not a constant improvisation.
You've got a real, physical operation.
A shop, warehouse, studio, clinic, or workshop. A handful of people on the floor daily, plus maybe a few remote staff. Phones ringing, packages going out, customers walking in, emails piling up.
You want your business to run like a system, not a constant improvisation.
How iTask brings order to your day-to-day operations:
Different staff see different parts of the system. Floor staff scan inventory and complete tasks. Customer service handles support and returns. Managers see dashboards, bottlenecks, and profitability. Everyone has exactly what they need — nothing more, nothing less.
Tasks aren't just abstract to-dos. They connect to customers, orders, inventory locations, machines, and rooms. See which orders are stuck because a specific workstation is overloaded. Understand cause and effect across your operation.
With barcodes and cheap scanners, know what's on which shelf, in which room. Track stock moving between locations. Reduce "we thought we had 5 left" moments that cost you sales and customer trust.
When someone emails or calls in, you see their entire history — orders, issues, notes — instantly. Staff can resolve problems faster and more confidently. No one is digging through Gmail, your e-commerce backend, and a spreadsheet at the same time.
Because iTask runs locally on hardware you control, your business doesn't grind to a halt because somebody's cloud region is "degraded." Your internal tools stay fast even on mediocre internet. Your data stays in your hands.
What this actually means for you:
Onboard new employees faster because everything they need lives in one predictable place.
Spot problems before they explode — like a packing backlog or supplier issue — before angry customers tell you.
Grow headcount without your processes collapsing under their own weight.
Medium-Sized Businesses Ready for a Clean Break
Replace the patchwork with a coherent platform you own.
You're bigger now.
Multiple departments or locations. Several layers of staff. An existing stew of systems — some custom, some off-the-shelf, some "that thing Jim wrote in 2014." You're big enough that broken processes are expensive, but still small and flexible enough that the owners can say, "We're changing this."
Who in this group is a good fit for iTask?
We're honest about this: not every mid-sized business is right for iTask. You're a good fit if:
When those conditions are met, iTask can become the backbone of your operations.
How iTask supports more complex deployments:
Pay a flat fee per user for a given major version. Buy version 1.2 → you get 1.3, 1.4, up to 1.9 at no additional cost. When version 2.0 ships, you decide when (or if) to pay for the next major upgrade.
This structure does not mean we rush to 2.0 or stuff the app with junk features to force upgrades. iTask is built on a performance-critical architecture. Every point release is about real improvement, stability, and capability. Every major release is purposeful.
For more complex operations, we offer help mapping your existing processes and data into iTask, structured rollout plans by team or location, and training. Billed as a separate engagement, but once migration is done, the ongoing cost structure is the same as any smaller business: no monthly SaaS fee.
Instead of separate systems for orders, inventory, production, support, projects, and email campaigns, iTask becomes the foundation everything hangs off of. Different departments see what they need, but the underlying data is consistent.
What this actually means for you:
Decommission overlapping systems and reduce operational risk.
Own a coherent platform instead of increasingly expensive subscriptions.
Staff can move between roles and locations without relearning everything.
Who iTask Is Not For
We deliberately do not target these organizations. It's not that they're bad — it's that they move differently than iTask is designed to support.
Layers of management, committees, and entrenched systems that can't be meaningfully changed.
Where any meaningful change requires months of meetings and approvals before anything can happen.
Where politics matter more than results, and change gets silently sabotaged by competing interests.
Those organizations move slowly by design. iTask is built for people who can still decide and act.
If You Recognize Yourself Here...
...then iTask is for you.
iTask gives you a fast, local, owner-controlled system to run the whole show — without surrendering your business to someone else's cloud and billing model.
